Abstract (en)

A baling machine for forming cylindrical bales of hay has a twine arm (74) through which twine is passed for wrapping round a completed bale (112). The twine is swept by the arm along the mouth (52) of the baling chamber (50). In order to provide an inexpensive, simple arrangement whereby two strands (86, 88) of twine can be wrapped round a bale (112) simultaneously, the twine arm (74) is branched to give a long arm portion (78) and a short arm portion (80), the portions carrying the separate strands (86, 88).
